The solution for this problem is:
Step 2...first error...when distributing through the parenthesis, u multiply, not add.
4(2x - 4) = 8 + 2x + 8 =
8x - 16 = 16 + 2x <== correction
Answer:
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
7 + 7(-4) - (2(-4)) + 3
7 - 28 - (-8)+3
7 - 28 +8 +3
= -10
The different between n and 15 is 5 in an algebraic expression would be n-16=5
the solution would be n=21
